The inspiration for this recipe came from a tea sandwich one of our food editors discovered at Alice's Tea Cup, in Manhattan. It's surprisingly substantial — a bit like an overstuffed deli sandwich, but not nearly as heavy.

I love this recipe. Great combination! It's a lot of work, but sooo yummy. I've made the carrots several times and use them for all kinds of things. They're great on salads, for one thing.

Yummy. And I can't have sugar so I used splenda instead because of the true measure properties. I don't like the carrots by themselves, too much heat, but absolutely delicious. The next time I make the tapanade I will use a whole heck of a lot less olive oil though. I don't know if its because I didn't quite have the required amount of olives in house, or if it really didn't need that much olive oil.

The only thing that's Moroccan about this is the cumin. Goat cheese and tapenade?

The carrots are flipping insane!!! You could put them on a lot of different sandwiches - with meat, possibly cheddar, and the list goes on. Fantastico.

I used this tapenade with seared tuna and whole wheat pasta. It was fabulous! I used green olives that were stuffed with garlic, which added depth.

Had a friend's interpretation of this
dish at an office party. Loved the
flavors. Tried this recipe for New
Year's Eve dinner appetizer. It was a
hit. I will make my own tweaks, but
plan to enjoy this one again and again.

I make this all the time for special luncheon events (shower, birthday parties, etc.) as a veggie option and everyone always raves. It's a little work, but the end result is so worth it!

I love the carrots! The sandwich per the recipe is
good, but I prefer a different combination - carrots
from this recipe, hummus, and slices of cucumber
in the middle, on multigrain bread. It tastes great,
doesn't fall apart as much, and easy to make in the
mornings before work.
